What is it about?

this study is to investigate a modification by adding a Si layer beneath a segmented slot waveguide (SSW) and optimizing the hybrid SSW as the core of a sensor to determine the sensor features in terms of the frequency response and sensitivity.

Why is it important?

reducing the Si-layer thickness and segment width with high periodicity revealed a high modulation efficiency for very low-frequency AC E-field sensors and simultaneously expanded the minimum limit of detection by incorporating sensors in very small AC E-fields.

Perspectives

Adding a Si layer beneath a segmented slot waveguide (SSW) and optimizing the hybrid SSW as the core of a sensor is a novel method to expand the minimum limit of detection by incorporating sensors in very small AC E-fields. Several parameters were used to examine the performance of integrated waveguide modulator, then use in low-frequency AC E-field sensors.
